| X.6023 PN. {Mr Northey} 15/WT28.4.30. S/W. {Sales / Derby Works} EFC. {E. Fowler Clarke - Electrical Engineer} .. from PN. {Mr Northey} X.6023 ELECTRICAL SPEEDOMETER. Referring to your EFC {E. Fowler Clarke - Electrical Engineer} 5/AD25,4.30. I like the idea very much of the alternator driven speed-volt-meter. Would any one of the many types of small hand-operated electric lamps now on the market be of some use to you in connection with such tests? These of course employ a small alternator, and there is no sort of moving contact or commutator. I could send you one if it would be of interest to you. P.N. | ||
